Hot key to compress,rar,zip.

[obite]

I am trying to make an auto it to scann in everything from a scanner, save it with today's date, compress it and then email it.

I have the scanning part and naming part down, but I can't compress it. If I right click there is an option to auto compress and name it which is fine with me, but I have no idea how to make autoit right click, so I would rather make a hotkey that can just be sent to auto be compressed. Any ideas? or do I need to rethink my approach? I don't care which compressing program I use, but I am currently using winrar.

Any help would be appreciated.

thank you
